(Clearwisdom.net) On February 5, Falun Gong practitioners gathered outside the Chinese Embassy in Stockholm to draw attention to the escalating persecution in China. More than 170 deaths have been reported since the beginning of this year. It is now more than a month since the 200 Falun Gong practitioners in Masanjia Labor Camp in Liaoning Province started their hunger strike to protest the persecution, and they are now in danger. On January 8, the practitioners had been on a hunger strike for ten days and the guards in the camp became frightened of the outside world finding out about their actions, and increased their efforts to block information from leaving the camp. They forbid all family members from visiting the practitioners. In Masanjia Forced Labor Camp, brutal and inhumane methods are used to brainwash and torture the illegally-detained Falun Gong practitioners. The guards have cruelly and relentlessly tortured and abused practitioners. We hope that all kind-hearted people around the world will raise awareness of the hideous crimes that are committed on a daily basis in Masanjia and in many places around China, and stand up to oppose the persecution.
